Altered Tins

Knitting Tins
Originally uploaded by Hayley a.k.a. Prism

So, in the quest for knitting stitch markers and such, which I will post about later, I had gotten relatively unhappy with the quick & dirty little pouch I had sewn to hold my knitting accessories (and getting the idea to craft for my knitting turned into many projects as it turns out).

I found some $1 tins at Micheal's for gift cards, but they were ugly (but flat as Altoid tins no longer are, and no mints to toss out wastefully!). So i picked up some scrapbooking paper and some mod podge and went to town, adding some finishing touches on one with my silver and gold paint pens.

Two seems to be enough for now, but more may ensue later (depending on how sane I feel like being).
